Not on a curve, but on an arc, line, ... ;)

If you have the "Show edit Frame" enable you will see the middle of this box for transform resize...

Hi Pilou,

That's the "center of the curve's bounding box", which is different than the "midpoint of the distance as traveled along the curve".

Here's an example of that kind of midpoint:

Hi Michael,
In my Cad/Cam package, the points tool has some options... "Point on entity by Distance/Percentage." It's very handy.. If you could look into this, I think it could be a great addition to the point command.

Hi Burr, I was kind of thinking in the future that there could be some option for that in an extended properties dialog box for curves...
